Agents for Trans-Canada Ah Lines 1 YEAR OF PROGRESS AND PROBLEMS REVIEWED IN ANNUAL KEI'ORT HOSPITAL (Continued from Page One) may I quote that In 1940 the cost of Canada's Air Force, plus her contribution to the Commonwealth Air Training Plan, reached a total of 225 million dollars. This might Justly be regarded as a colossal sum for a country so small as Canada. During the same year illness (largely preventable) cost the country 25 million dollars more than her expenditure on her air force. Canada may be proud of spending 225 millions in her efforts to suppress tyranny but will gain little comfort In the thought that sickness cost her 25 million dollars more. The cost of sickness is not in dollars alone Manpower is needed and it is estimated that 50,000 workers are idle every working day through Illness.

Average admission for the first six months was 125 and average admission for the last six months was 146. Discharges were 1,555, deaths 61. "In commenting upon the bal ance sheet, particularly the revenue and expenditure account, I wish to point out that these statements cannot detail the actual services rendered by the hospital to the community. Last year It was not possible to make an actual comparison with the previous year as at that time the new hospital had not been two full years In operation, but this year we can compare our figures with those of 1940 and the following compari sons will give you a fair Idea of our past year's activities: patient days in 1941 were 19,696 and Jn 1940 were 19,196. showing an In crease of 2. ( "Hospital fees charged in 1941 iwere $70,345, or an Increase of 10 percent over the previous year. From the above total $24,872.0? was written off as bad debts, etc. The write-off was approximately the same as in 1940 and, while It appears abnormally large, the usual practice of accounting Is employed whereby full rates are ieharsed for pvprvnnp pntirincr the WANTED-Bcperienced saleslady, hospital whether Ihey be indigent now unemployed neeos eu.ua- cases or otherw lse tlon.

Free Services "Each year I believe It well to state that 'free services' Is definitely an unavoidable expense and there can be no criticism at thv board for this toss. On the con trary it is a subject for commendation for the very excellent work done among poor persons in need of hospital treatment, and as far as we are, concerned the expense of 'free service' Is" metrat-4efNifc-4-the aggregate, by the statutory grants from the provincial government and the City, in some cases. "Doubtful revenues, principally fti bad; debts, amounting to $12522. is in connection with deceased patients and Includes persons in receipt of mothers' pensions, old age pensions' transients, persons who have left town and patients residing in unorganized territory.

"Laundry $4,000 or approximately the same as last year. "Demolishing o 1 d building $1,500. "The Increase in income reflects the additional use that has been made of our faculties by the increased population in the city and partly due to the improved economic status of the citizens. With the exception of dietary our other costs have been constant which Indicates that the usual good care has been taken by our staff In keeping operating costs at a minimum. Women's Auxiliary "The ladles of the Women's Auxiliary report that war activities have taken a great deal of the time of their workers and that many members have moved to other cities. In spite of these handicaps they have managed to add ! to the comforts of the patients by various gifts. The Annual Ball, Tea, Tag Day, and Rummage Sate were quite successful. They purchased six more mattresses, two Catch beds, six bedside tables, four overbed trays and also contributed to the Christmas Cheer. They feel that the year 1942 will prove a trying one for us all and hope the work of the hospital association will still go on and that they may be able to assist in the good work of assisting to minister to the sick. "It Is Interesting to note that our hospital still merits the good wishes of many organisations in the community as well as 'individuals, and I wish to express the thanks of the board to the hospital staff for their loyalty and co operation; the doctors, who render unselfish service through our hospital to the indigent sick; the Women's Auxiliary, tht Ministerial Association, tradesmen and individuals who were most kind In furnishing comforts to patients at the Christmas season: to the Press and all those persons and societies who have In any way showed sympathy and help in our hospital work."
